    Wow! Everything modernized since we were there in the 80’s. Back then the airport in Nevis was basically a shack!

    • @JoeBeetsJr
      @JoeBeetsJr 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hurricanes and storms over the years have ruined the beaches which were wider and more pristine back in the day. Looking forward to returning this or next year. Have friends there who are native to Nevis.

      +Maxi-Air that's nice.... i find the prices to St. Kitts are a bit high i want to see more people taking the short hop over to St. Kitts as well....i spoke to many tourist there and $$$ is a big issue :)

    • @MaxiAir
      @MaxiAir 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +SKBenergy Both airports you flew to are imo big enough to accomodate much bigger aircraft, so prices could drop, if they maybe send an ATR, but I liked Winair, they are great!

    I spent MANY HOURS flying as an aircrewman in the US Coast Guard, and _many_ of those hours were in Lockheed HC-130H Hercules airplanes.
    Looking out of a scanner window and seeing a turboprop there on the wing is NORMAL for me...😊

    Do they reverse the prop pitch when landing so as to slow the plane down ? Also , do they carry inflatable life rafts in case the plane has too ditch ?

    • @SKBenergy

      who exactly are you referring to in the video ?

    • @joedoakes8307

      THe prop pitch of the engines to act as a brake to help the pilots slow the aircraft on short runways .

    Hello, buddy! I have a question for you: Why the plane had to stop at Nevis to refuel, if 10 minutes later you'd arrive at St. Kitts? Isn't St. Kitts very close to St. Marteen? The tanks of the Twin Otter are that small? =O
    Great video, keep them coming!

    • @SKBenergy

      +Bernardo Odenwald Hello there my friend :) !!! by schedule the flight was to touch down in Nevis then on to St. Kitts but am not sure about the fuel part if they do it all the time.. the pilot just said they need a little top up and we all had to get off :)..normally people stay on the plane who are going to St. Ktits
